The daughter of the first wife is a black lotus, reborn and remarried to kill
Chapter 23 The Adventures of the Bracelet
An held back her tears and took the longevity lock. This was what she wanted, something she wanted to fight for her child who should have been born safely.
How she hoped her child could live a hundred years...
Li Qingqian stood up and handed her a handkerchief, "Auntie An is a beauty. If she cries till her face is stained in my Jingying Residence, it will be Qingqian's fault."
Aunt An wiped away her tears and said, "I will never forget the kindness Third Miss has shown me. It is getting late, so I will go back first. Liu will be sent out of the mansion at 1:05 a.m. tomorrow, so please don't miss the time."
"I understand. It's dark outside and freezing cold. Aunt An needs to be extra careful when she goes back home," Li Qingqian took a cloak and put it on her. "Yun Yi and Yun Shang, you two hold the lanterns and escort Aunt An out of Jing Ying Residence."
Yunyi and Yunshang each carried a lantern and followed An on both sides out of the door of Jingyingju.
"Just send them here," An tucked in the corners of their clothes, "You two should go in quickly too, so you don't catch a cold."
Yunchang handed the lamp in her hand to her, "It's fine if Yunyi and I share a lamp. Thank you Aunt An for coming to Jingyingju to help our girl find the bracelet today."
Mrs. An understood and sighed, "It's a pity that it hasn't been found yet. I don't know who took the bracelet. It was lost for no reason."
After she walked away, Yunshang closed the door of Jingyingju and walked back to the main hall side by side with Yunyi.
As soon as she entered the room, Yun Chang could not wait to close the main hall door and squatted beside the brazier to rub her hands to keep warm. "Oh, it's so cold. Why is it so cold today?"
Yun Yi squatted beside her and teased, "I told you that the temperature has dropped in the past two days. I told you to wear more clothes, but you refused to listen. Do you feel cold now?"
Li Qingqian sat in the main seat, holding a hot water bottle in her hand, so she wasn't too cold.
"Miss, do you really want to take Yu Luo away? I don't think she is a good person." Yun Shang raised her head and looked at her curiously.
Li Qingqian shook her head and said, "She has a close relationship with the Liu family. If she is willing to betray her master like this, I won't use her."
"I'm using a common laxative to trick her into saying it's poisonous, just to get her to tell me the real cause of my mother's death and whether it has anything to do with Liu," she tilted her head and thought for a while, "Even if I can't get anything out of her, at least this is a chance to disgust Liu and Li Shuyue."
*
Liu was sent out of the house on time at 1:15 a.m. the next day. At that time, Li Shuyue was still sleeping soundly in the warm bed.
However, she did not feel that her daughter did not care about her. Instead, she felt even more distressed for Li Shuyue. She did not know when she would be able to come back. What if that little bitch Li Qingqian took advantage of her absence to bully Shuyue?
This time she brought only a maid named Yulian, who was not as capable as Yuluo.
Liu originally wanted to give Yu Luo another chance and let her go with her, but she couldn't find anyone early in the morning.
Seeing Liu's eyes red as she looked at Li Shuyue who was still dreaming, Yulian urged in a low voice: "Madam, it's getting late, shall we leave quickly?"
Only then did Liu come to her senses and walked outside.
Li Zhengkang wanted to save face, so he told others that Liu had asked to go to Guqing Temple to pray for three months because her two daughters had already been married, and she would not come back until after the New Year.
Since it is a prayer, the people in the mansion should see you off with courtesy.
An got up early, put on the pair of snow-heart jade and glass earrings that Li Qingqian gave her last night, and walked towards the gate of Li Mansion with her maid.
From a distance, I saw a light purple figure approaching there. It was Li Qingqian.
Seeing her coming over, Li Zhengkang smiled faintly, "I guess you are happy to see such a scene?"
"If I am happy, father will not give me such an opportunity again; if I am unhappy, I don't know what excuse father will find to punish me," Li Qingqian replied with the same smile, "In this case, there is no such thing as happy or not."
"Father, you are a smart man, and A Qian is not stupid either. I am enjoying this game very much. I guess your laxity during this period is just a gift to your daughter when she returns to Beijing?"
Li Zhengkang couldn't help laughing, "You are so good at talking to me. You look just like your biological mother when she was alive."
Li Qingqian said meaningfully: "Father still remembers what my biological mother looked like."
Li Zhengkang glanced at her and said nothing more.
An looked back and forth between the two of them before stepping forward and saying, "My concubine wishes you all the best, Master and Third Miss."
I don’t know if it was because he felt guilty, but Li Zhengkang didn’t even look at An.
However, when Li Qingqian saw her, she exclaimed: "I really didn't give this pair of earrings to the wrong person. Aunt An looks really good in them."
Li Zhengkang followed her gaze and frowned.
Good looking? Not at all!
Most women in Beiyuan have slender figures, and they look great with the elegant yet noble Snow Heart Jade Glass; women in Dawei are more diverse, and most of them wear Central Plains jade articles such as mutton-fat jade as ornaments to show the beauty of the Central Plains.
Mrs. An was a plump beauty, not too tall. Wearing the snow-heart jade and colored glaze earrings, she looked a little abrupt and out of place.
But what really gave Li Zhengkang a headache was, of course, not the incongruous accessories of his concubine, but the snow-heart jade glass, especially a pair that was exactly the same as the one worn by Li Qingqian's biological mother when she was alive.
His eyes shot coldly towards Li Qingqian.
Li Qingqian explained politely, "I have always kept my mother's earrings. But when I was counting the half of the dowry I got from my fourth sister yesterday, I picked out a pair of snow-heart jade and glass earrings."
"Since my daughter learned that Aunt An had lost her child, she felt pity for her and wanted to give her a gift, but my favorite mutton-fat jade bracelet was gone. And thinking that I had been able to get a marriage with the Duke of Zhenguo, it was a blessing brought by my mother, so I gave Aunt An this pair of earrings, hoping to bring her blessings."
Li Zhengkang looked her up and down, his face serious: "Missing? When did you disappear?"
"I couldn't find it when I got home yesterday."
Yun Shang on the side looked at Li Zhengkang, then at Li Qingqian, as if she was struggling with something.
Li Zhengkang noticed it, so he raised his chin towards her and said, "If you know anything, just tell me."
"Master, I dare not lie. The bracelet...was taken away by the fourth lady."
"Fourth sister?" Li Qingqian asked in surprise, "Yun Shang, don't talk nonsense. I just went to Jinyuyuan yesterday. How could Fourth Sister take my bracelet in front of father?"
Yunchang added: "Although it was not taken away by the Fourth Young Lady herself, it was taken away from me by Miss Yuluo beside her. It is said that it was taken away by me, it is said that it was taken away by Miss Yuluo beside her. It is said that it was taken away by Miss Yuluo..."
"Report truthfully what was said!" Li Zhengkang shouted.
"The fourth lady said that our lady is not worthy of wearing such a nice bracelet. Only someone of her status is worthy of wearing that bracelet."
"How dare you!" Li Zhengkang raised his voice a little, "Do you know the consequences of slandering the girls in the mansion?"
"I dare not speak nonsense," Yun Shang knelt down, "If the master does not believe me, now that Madam has left the house, why don't we move to the Jinyu Courtyard? The fourth young lady stayed in the Jinyu Courtyard yesterday."
Li Zhengkang was really about to faint from anger.
Why did you go to Jinyuyuan again? Was Li Shuyue planning to anger herself to death?
Seeing that he was about to roll his eyes in anger, Li Qingqian quickly went over to support him, "Father, if you suspect my fourth sister, why don't we go to the Jinyu Courtyard and ask for clarification. If my fourth sister didn't do this, then we can give her justice."
Although Li Zhengkang felt better after being supported by her, he was still speechless about his daughter.
Was she angry that Li Shuyue stole something? As an elder sister, couldn't she just teach her younger sister a lesson?
What made him angry was that Li Shuyue ignored his words again and again, but this girl was good at taking advantage of the power of others and using her own momentum to deal with Li Shuyue.
